DEANDRE CARTER NEWS

Next to nothing once again Carter caught one of his two targets for 15 yards in the 17-14 win over the Titans on Sunday. He also lost 10 yards on his lone carry.

Impact Carter has played a combined 28 offensive snaps since the return of both Mike Williams and Keenan Allen. At this point, the speedster's value lies solely in leagues that also account for return yardage, as Carter tallied a combined 70 yards on kick and punt returns.

Limited to 12 offensive snaps Carter did not gain positive yardage with his lone reception in the 23-17 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

Impact The return of Mike Williams (ankle) officially ended any sort of fantasy viability for Carter, who played just 12 offensive snaps after playing at least 40 since Week 2. Expect Carter to make noise simply as the team's returner moving forward.

Quiet in loss Carter caught one of his two targets for 14 yards during Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Raiders.

Impact Carter set a new season low for both targets and catches and failed to surpass 20 yards receiving for the fourth time this year. Despite coming off his best game of the season and Justin Herbert throwing the ball 47 times, the 29-year-old receiver was unable to get involved in the passing game. With both a tough matchup against the Dolphins and Mike Williams (ankle) potentially returning this week, Carter's production should not be expected to increase.

Season-high 10 targets Carter recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-24 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Despite the presence of Keenan Allen, Carter turned 10 targets into seven receptions -- both of which were season highs. His performance was highlighted by a 33-yard touchdown reception late in the second quarter, and he also chipped in catches of 13 and 12 yards. Carter's role will likely fade once Mike Williams (ankle) is able to return, though it's unclear when that may be.

Still factor in passing game Carter caught all three of his targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Chiefs.

Impact The return of Keenan Allen and Mike Williams figured to relegate Carter back to his return duties, but the speedy receiver immediately returned to a prominent role after Williams suffered an ankle injury in the second quarter. Expect Carter to continue to be a mainstay in the Chargers' three-wideout packages until the duo of Allen and Williams is completely healthy.

Good to go for Week 11 Carter (ribs) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs.

Impact With both Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle) sidelined the last two contests, Carter put up a combined 9-117-1 line on 10 targets while playing at least 82 percent of the offensive snaps. Carter joined his fellow wide receivers on Week 11 injury reports, going LP/LP/FP (like Allen and Williams) due to a rib injury. While Carter has been cleared to play this weekend, Allen and Williams are questionable. As a result, if one or both happen to sit out again Sunday, Carter could be in line for another decent dose of passes from quarterback Justin Herbert.

Logs limited practice Carter was a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to a rib injury.

Impact Along with Carter, Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle) were limited participants at the Chargers' first Week 11 practice. If one or both of Allen and Williams are able to suit up this Sunday against the Chiefs, Carter's workload could take a hit, assuming he's active for the contest. In this past weekend's loss to the 49ers, Carter caught all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown while playing 50 of 58 snaps on offense alongside Joshua Palmer (55 snaps, three catches on eight targets) and Michael Bandy (49 snaps, zero catches).

Scores touchdown in loss Carter caught all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-16 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Carter was the recipient of a wide-open touchdown to begin the Chargers' opening possession, but the speed receiver was held relatively in check from that point forward as the 49ers limited any subsequent big plays. Carter's been an offensive factor with both Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle) sidelined, but both receivers could be returning soon, which would relegate the 29-year-old back to his typical special teams duties.
